I’m new to running a Wordpress site and want to make sure that I delete spam and junk comments, not just have them accumulate. What’s the fast way to accomplish this?

While most of the spam I get on my Wordpress blog is pretty basic stuff, comments like “good point” and “best blog I read this week”, every so often I get a comment that’s in a foreign language. I’m always curious, what do they say? Is there a way to translate a language, even if you don’t know what language it actually is?
I can understand spam comments that are links to stupid sites, gambling, porn, whatever. What I don’t get are comments that don’t even have links, or link to something completely benign like google.com. What’s the inside scoop, blogmaster Dave?
